A blazing flame.
Thick black smoke billowed.
A house was destroyed by fire.
Soon, three girls appeared in front of the house.
Dong Yike, Yan Moxuan, and Yu Xinran.
Yu Mobai wanted to call out to them, but he realized he was just a bystander.
Unable to make any movements or sounds.
The three women, as if possessed, cried out and rushed into the fire.
The next moment, he seemed to hear a sound, and then the entire house exploded and vanished in an instant.
The scalding waves of fire rushed towards him almost in the blink of an eye.
It devoured him in an instant.
"Holy shit..."
Yu Mobai suddenly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a white ceiling.
The smell of formaldehyde confirmed to him that this was a hospital.
For a moment, he thought that his rebirth was a dream, just his delusion before he died.
If it weren't for a familiar voice coming from the side...
"You're awake."
Yu Mobai turned his head and saw Yu Xinran.
She was leaning against the headboard while receiving an IV drip.
"How long have I been asleep?"
Yu Mobai felt dizzy.
"One night."
Yu Xinran's face was still pale. Her eyes lingered on Yu Mobai for a moment. "Thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have inhaled even more harmful gases and caused physical damage."
"Don't thank me."
Yu Mobai looked at the IV drip in the back of his hand, shifted his position slightly, his arm was numb, and said, "This is what a competent leader should do."
"Oh, so you consider me your subordinate."
Yu Xinran said with a smile, "So, does that mean I'll have to work my ass off next?"
"That's roughly the idea."
Yu Mobai nodded with a grin.
But my mind was racing. Shouldn't you say something to thank me and offer yourself in return?
Then I righteously refused, saying that I didn't want your body, but you stubbornly insisted on me and started a drama of pursuing me.
Can't this woman just follow the script?
"Oh, by the way, your mother is here."
Yu Xinran pointed outside, "The doctor just called her out."
"My mom's here?"
Yu Mobai's spirits lifted; he could already imagine the scene when Zheng Zhaoxia saw him.
The next moment, the ward door was pushed open.
Zheng Zhaoxia walked in carrying a stack of medical reports. When she saw that Yu Mobai was awake, she rushed over and asked with concern, "Son, you're finally awake. Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
By the way, the best app for reading aloud right now is Yeguo Reading (yeguoyuedu). Install the latest version.
"Mom, nothing's wrong."
Yu Mobai chuckled, "You can be discharged tomorrow."
"Why are you leaving the hospital? You should take good care of yourself and get some rest."
Zheng Zhaoxia wiped away her tears, "You have no idea, when we received the call from the school in the early hours of yesterday morning, it scared your dad and me to death."
Where is my dad?
"He went out to buy food."
"Call him quickly and tell him that I'm recovering from a serious illness and need to eat something good."
Yu Mobai patted his stomach. "I'm hungry."
Seeing that Yu Mobai was still in the mood to eat, Zheng Zhaoxia was finally relieved. "What's there to eat? The doctor said you need to rest for the next few days and eat light meals."
Yu Mobai pursed his lips and didn't say anything; he couldn't argue with Zheng Zhaoxia.
If you don't want to eat, then don't eat.
Zheng Zhaoxia got up and poured two glasses of water, handing one to Yu Mobai and the other to Yu Xinran.
"thank you."
Yu Xinran smiled and thanked her.
Zheng Zhaoxia nodded to indicate that everything was alright.
Not long after, Yu Jinsheng returned carrying several breakfasts.
"Dad, what brings you here? Isn't the supermarket busy?"
"I'm busy, but I still have to come."
Yu Jinsheng didn't say much when he saw that Yu Mobai was awake. "Luckily you're alright this time. If something had happened to you, what would your mother and I have done?"
"Everything's fine now."
Yu Mobai shouted loudly, "Where's the food? I'm hungry."
"If he knows to eat, then it seems like nothing serious has happened."
Yu Jinsheng also handed a portion of his meal to Yu Xinran.
"If you've eaten my food, you'll have to work twice as hard when you get back, Sister Ran."
Yu Mobai took a bite of the steamed bun and said with a grin.
With parents present, Yu Xinran didn't say anything, only rolled her eyes at him.
However, she was still somewhat touched.
The reason she was able to wake up so quickly was thanks to Yu Mobai.
After she fell unconscious, Yu Mobai kept covering her mouth and nose to reduce the amount of harmful gas she inhaled, so she woke up not long after arriving at the hospital last night.
On the contrary, Yu Mobai, having inhaled a lot of harmful gases, did not wake up until the afternoon of the next day.
If this were set in Korea, wouldn't this be a typical romantic idol drama?
"Ran-jie, don't look at me like that."
Yu Mobai slurped up his millet porridge and said with a grin, "It's all thanks to my dad's good teaching. He taught me from a young age to protect girls."
Zheng Zhaoxia seemed to want to say something, but remained silent.
"That's right."
Yu Mobai seemed to suddenly remember something, "Mom, is anyone from our school coming?"
"More than twenty people came last night, they should all be from your school."
Zheng Zhaoxia said, "I'm staying here all night, and a few others won't be going back until this morning."
"Mom, give me the phone."
After receiving the call, Yu Mobai immediately called Qi Moliang back.
"Mo Bai? You're awake?"
Qi Moliang said with a smile, "It's good that you're alright."
